The relative effectiveness of changing a "wrong" law vs breaking the law.
Hell, the Emancipation Proclamation didn't free Mrs. U.S. Grant's slaves. The North's victory also didn't free Mrs. U.S. Grant's slaves. What freed her slaves? Changing the law.
That's exactly counter to your claim, "I'm sure plenty of "reasonable" people agreed the law was wrong but said the "right way" to fight it was to change the law. Those people are wrong. It doesn't work." If changing the law "doesn't work", I wonder when or even IF Mrs. U.S. Grant's slaves would have ever been freed.
Clear now?
